This is one of the nicer older VW/Pan IM's I have seen.

Seems like a pretty good deal, although it will need the usual going-through of a car that's been sitting a lot for a long time.
Surprisingly, only 5800 miles in 26 years (although the ad says the guy has a small collection) and it's in Woodstock, Vermont, semi-close to where I came from (about 3 hours from me, now.
If anyone wants a visit and vehicle check, let me know and I may be able to zip up there for lunch at the Woodstock Inn - especially at the start of Foliage Season!
I posted this a while ago when it was initally listed on ebay and here are some comments for that car.
Gordon,
In the event that you do go I'll meet you along the way and go with you if you like. Not too many to look at in Northern Mew England..

Currently at $23,100. That's a whole lotta' love for a 35 y/o build.
$24.700 realized. nice for us pan-based im owners.
Well, no one asked me to make a trip, but I may just take a ride to Woodstock, Anyway! I'm sure that Kathy and the Jacks would love the trip, and pets are welcome there, too.
BTW: for those of you not from around heah, Henry Ford, the one and only, bought up a whole lot of Woodstock, Vermont decades ago and "restored" it into a classical New England Village - he liked it that much - and it's been on the National Historic Register ever since. It's about as "New England" as you can get for a bigger town, while Newfane, just down the road from where I come from in Jamaica and Wardsboro, VT, is the most photogenic New England village.
Google those places and then hit "Images" and you can see them, too! Plus, just over the river from Newfane and Townshend, Vermont, is another "Grafton", up in Vermont, with a great main street. I used to have a painting of Main Street in Grafton, VT, on the wall of my office at work for a while. Second best place in New England to "get away from it all", the first place being the Windham Hill Inn in Townshend, VT.
We now leave our New England Foliage Guide and return to our regularly scheduled programming......
You are correct, Gordon, a very pretty place. My brother lives just south of there near Bridgewater Corners.

Any maybe good for us newer IM owners. That's quite a price for a '78 Speedster.
Bob, when do you plan to put your car on the market?
Let me know when your new IM is close of completion. I want to drive in and have a look ( and drool).
Wow! Windham College is about as far out into no-where as Nichols College in Dudley, Ma (my alma mater). Look out the window during Economics 302 and all you see are cows on the nearby hills.
If you get a chance to get back up there, I highly recommend the Culinary Weekend at the Windham Hill Inn. It's certainly out of the price range of a Carlisle or even the Tale of the Dragon, but you'll be talking about it for months after... It's almost as good as our kitchen, here!
